Observations

-Receiver Demarcus Robinson was on the field for almost the entire game. He had a good showing, too. The Chiefs may have something in him.

-WR Albert Wilson returned after missing Week 6. He saw about half of the offensive snaps. That sounds about right for him.

-Linebacker Dee Ford was only in the game about 50 percent of the time in Week 6. His workload increased drastically for Week 7, as he saw almost 100 percent of snaps. It looks like he’s healthy.

-Cornerback Phillip Gaines was on the field for 89 percent of snaps. He struggled big time, so it’s unfortunate that KC has to rely on him so much. The same goes for safety Eric Murray, who was on the field for two-thirds of defensive snaps.

-CB Kenneth Acker saw a handful of defensive snaps this week. He’s usually reserved for special teams roles. Maybe the Chiefs are starting to try him out over Gaines?

-After seeing a decent chunk of snaps over the last two weeks, LB Kevin Pierre-Louis only saw five defensive snaps in Week 7. The same goes for LB Frank Zombo.

That’s it for this week. The Chiefs continue the regular season against the Denver Broncos at 7:30 p.m. CT on Monday, October 30.
